    Wikipedia is saying Schache is a Melbourne Demon. Also saying Weidemann is a Bomber. Schache has played 69 games for 77 games, Weidemann 59 games for 62 goals.

    True, i agree value wise,

    But on field production is an entierly different arguement.

    In an ideal world with no injuries, not sure either would crack our best 22 (regularly) but we'll see.

    Is Schache better or worse than Weid - the answer is neither.

    Is pick 37 better than 54,72 & future 70s pick - for sure.

    So, if Schache is on a lot less coin than Weid, which I suspect, this is a pretty handy trade, it's no world beater but a shrewd piece of trading.

    I thought this was a bad dream. But it is going to happen 

    Schache is as soft as heated butter. 
    He must be on a heap less money than Weid, that can be the only motivation for this. The ultimate steak knives dealing

    Big difference here is the dogs are stacked for forwards. While we are devoid for forwards and weid could never get a game. Came cheap and has a role he can immediately fill.

    I wish the same for Josh as I did for Sam. 
    Get it right above the ears and let’s see how he goes.

    18 games between 2020 - 2022 is hardly a massive endorsement but won rave reviews for his round 19 game against us at the G in 2021 playing as a defender.

    A sufficient replacement for Weid.

    Downgrade of Weideman.

    Status quo maybe. 
     

    Maybe the change to our forward half game could result in a dramatic improvement?

    Weids certainly couldn’t benefit from our high balls.

    I’m not saying it will happen but softness is one thing you can fix. Schache was a baby at Brisbane and traded to the Dogs before he really failed. 

    He’s now failed at the dogs and genuinely on his last chance.

    Have no idea if this will come to fruition or even come out in the media and I put it down to pure speculation.

    Was just having coffee with a few mates who I hadn't seen for a while and one of them is heavily involved with the Murray Bushrangers under 18's as a development coach.

    We were speaking about the junior talent and then got talking about this year's trade period.

    Out of the blue he mentioned that apparently we've shown some interest in Josh Schache and have had chats to Josh and his management? 

    I would like to think I can trust his word purely that he's got contacts within recruiting circles and Josh being an ex bushie.

    I have own opinion on this and I honestly don't think it's the right fit even though we're lacking a key forward.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
